I'm trying to emulate a piece of software in which users enter numeric values in two separate fields before hitting submit. Both fields need to have the correct values, and I want to test for it.
You're able to create question slide with points only with one field. But you can build your course in way you can manage your tracking using result slide or visited slides.
Sorry for the delay in responding. I found the easiest thing to do was create a multiple response question and hide the question. Then I tie each of my fields into a trigger for each of the multiple responses. If the user inputs the desired numeric entry, the state of the button changes to selected.

1. Add a multiple response graded question and a results slide 2. Add one response for each numeric entry you want to track 3. Insert the numeric entry fields 4. Add a trigger. action : Change state of on object : Check Box 1 to state : Selected When : Variable changes Variable : NumericEntry (or NumericEntry1, NumericEntry) On Condition: NumericEntry (or NumericEntry1, NumericEntry2) == equal to (the correct answer) 5. Repeat for each NumericEntry you need. 6. Hide the multiple response question box (i just placed a shape the same colour as my background over it). I did not do this in the example story so you can see everything.
You can't score each individual entry with this method. Users would get one point (or whatever value you choose) for entering ALL the answers correctly.
You can mix numeric and alpha inputs with this method, which is handy.

Create numeric or text fields (SL automatically wil create variables connected with these fields) and create triggers:
show layer "correct" when user press button if variable1 is "what you wanted AND variable2 is "what you wanted
show layer "incorrect" when user press button if variable1 is not "what you wanted OR variable2 is not "what you wanted"
Can I track that on my results slide/LMS?

Thanks for your suggestions, Kamil! Adam, please let us know if that will do the trick for you. :)

Thanks for popping in to share Adam.
Many thanks for the update, Adam, and I'm glad you found something that works for you! :)
Hi Adam can you please send a sample slide for this as I am trying to do something similar but haven't been able to understand it yet.
Thanks!

Hey folks, I am still subscribed. I'll try to get a file up this afternoon.
Thanks Adam :)
Here you go.
1. Add a multiple response graded question and a results slide
2. Add one response for each numeric entry you want to track
3. Insert the numeric entry fields
4. Add a trigger.
action : Change state of
on object : Check Box 1
to state : Selected
When : Variable changes
Variable : NumericEntry (or NumericEntry1, NumericEntry)
On Condition: NumericEntry (or NumericEntry1, NumericEntry2) == equal to (the correct answer)
5. Repeat for each NumericEntry you need.
6. Hide the multiple response question box (i just placed a shape the same colour as my background over it). I did not do this in the example story so you can see everything.

Very kind of you to share Adam! Hope this helps Saba out as well.
Hi Adam
Thanks for uploading this example, i have been able to use it for a food safety module. Very much appreciated!
This is brilliant. I knew there would be a loophole! Thank you for sharing.
Thanks Rachael and Jacquelyn for popping in and sharing that this was able to assist you as well.
What is the difference between the NumericEntry and NumericEntry1 variables?
Hi Kaamel,
Do you have multiple Numeric Entries in your content? Storyline will create a new "NumericEntry" variable each time you add an input to your project.
You can find out where the variables are used by clicking the links in the Use Count column of the Variables window.
